"AP Photo/Alex Brandon President Donald Trump continued his diligent work making sure CNN senior reporter Daniel Dale has job security Wednesday evening, including such a large batch of lies in his speech that Dale had to update his already lengthy fact-check the next morning. Trump's primetime address to the nation was widely panned by critics on both the right and left as largely pointless."
"During his speech, the president made a number of claims during his speech that were exaggerated, inaccurate, misrepresented, or just plain lies. Dale appeared on The Source with Kaitlan Collins Wednesday evening to sort through some of this total fiction from Trump, and joked to Collins that he was able to fact-check the speech half asleep because so many of these claims have been debunked so many times."
President Trump delivered a primetime address containing many exaggerated, inaccurate, misrepresented, and false claims. Critics across the political spectrum widely panned the address as largely pointless. CNN senior reporter Daniel Dale began a line-by-line fact-check, noting that many claims had been debunked repeatedly and that he could summarize quickly. Dale posted a detailed fact-check online and later added updates, writing that Trump repeatedly deploys the same core batch of long-debunked false claims in speeches and interviews. One added item flagged an 'up-is-down' claim that Democrats are demanding large Obamacare premium increases.
